Parliament has approved the creation of the Programme for Agile and Rapid Defence Innovation, to speed up defence innovation at lower cost. Ukraine will be fully associated with the programme.

Happy German Unity Day! 🇩🇪 On 3 October, Germany celebrates its national day, honouring the country, its people, and the reunification of East and West Germany in 1990. The German flag combines black, red and gold, colours that symbolise Germany’s history, unity and freedom.
The image symbolically represents Germany through its national flag and a small European Union flag, conveying information about national identity and EU membership rather than serving purely decorative purposes.
